Related Product Information for MOTS-c blocking peptide
Overview: Mitochondria are functioning organelles that playa secondary role in signaling within the cell. While the details of mitochondrial signaling are not fully understood, the identification of an open reading frame in the mitochondrial DNA coding for humanin suggests that there are more signaling peptides coded by portions of the mtONA. A short open reading frame within the 12$ subunit of the mitochondrial ribosomal RNA codes for a 16 amino acid peptide called mitochondrial open reading frame of 125 rRNA-c, Of MOTS-c. MOTS-c plays a role in insulin sensitivity and metabolic homeostasis (1). MQTS-c targets skeletal muscle tissue, and the mechanism of its action involves inhibition of the folate cycle. MOTS-c promotes the formation of an endogenous AMP analog called 5-aminoimidazole4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR). AICAR is an activator of AMPK, suggesting that MOTS-c could be used in an insulin-regulation capacity in order to treat type 2 diabetes (2).
MOTS-c selective antibodies were generated against a peptide taken from the human protein. The MOTS--c· selective antibodies are affinity purified on an immobilized antigen based affinity matrix, the isolated antibodies were then stabilized in antibody stabilization buffer for long-term storage. The MOTS-c-selective antibodies are fully characterized for applications in western blotting and ELISA at the recommended dilutions.

AAA Biotech's MOTS-c can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, WB (Western Blot), IHC (Immunohistochemistry). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MOTS-c mt-rnr1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MOTS-c, Blocking Peptide" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
